Abstract-This paper presents the development of a versatile sensor platform used for autonomous data acquisition. The key advantages of the platform are its compact design, implemented onboard sensors, standard interfaces to connect application specific sensors and subsequently simple installation and low costs for the preparation of a measurement task. The paper provides details of the platform design and key characteristics. Practical exemplary applications in the field of automotive sensing, covering thermal management related and passenger comfort related measurement tasks, are presented.

Abstract-This paper presents a non-invasive measurement method to detect and characterize failures and material imperfections in total joint prostheses based on acceleration measurement. Therefore, a prototype sensor has been developed to fulfill the requirements of a medical-technical sensor. This sensor has been tested on patients with total hip arthroplasty. Special emphasis is put on the real-time processing of measurement data by means of intelligent signal processing as well as reliable and repeatable measurement procedures, including standardized positions for the sensor front-end and a standardized motion-sequence the patient is performing.
